By reviewing the inception, the iPad may be touted as a media consumer's appliance. It is largely known for its flawless image rendering, video playback and vast storage space. Nonetheless, the iPad's purpose will not begin and end on entertainment and leisure alone. It is also purposeful for business-savvy users who would like to experience Apple's newest addition to its roster of technologically advanced products.
Apple is just not entirely detached from Microsoft-based productivity programs; goods fact, the iPad has built-in support for Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 and 2007. The maker understands the proliferation of Microsoft's Business Email service and wouldn't normally let their users remain behind in business if they opt for an iPad.
The Microsoft Exchange support will enable push email service and will also be made available to the user's calendar events and contacts' information stored on the Microsoft profile. It is also easy to manage specific calendar details, search global address lists and inbox messages through this enhanced software feature.
Security is of utmost importance on an iPad; at the owner's preference, multiple complex passwords can be assigned to ensure that confidential information remain inaccessible to unauthorized persons. Data exchanged over-the-air or online can be encrypted to ensure security. Additionally, corporate communication over-the-air is highly protected by a certificate-based authentication process via Exchange and VPN. Even a regrettable event such as loss or theft in the iPad will not leave important data vulnerable because information about it can be securely deleted by way of a remote command.
Specialized apps such as business metrics tracker, proposal reviewer, travel organizer, and flight tracker are already developed with the iPad's business users at heart. Much like the enterprise edition in the BlackBerry RIM, Apple also hosts the iPhone Developer Enterprise Program. The gap of the iPhone Developer Enterprise through the Blackberry RIM is that the Apple-supported initiative will enable businesses to produce their own specialized apps. Their unique apps will be shared for their employees and will be deemed proprietary through the client company.
Moreover, iPad profiles can easily be configured for businesses. Companies can set up their own profiles, complete with details including VPN, e-mail, wireless network, and password and share it with colleagues on the iPad through Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or the Internet.
Most importantly, iPad supports iWork, Apple's office productivity suite of apps that permits the user to create and browse documents, spreadsheets and presentations. These apps happen to be redesigned to complement the iPad's multi-touch system.
Keynote slides may be presented, created, and enhanced through the touchscreen device. iWork's mobile versions of Numbers and Pages can even be managed by tapping elements on the multi-touch screen. These documents may be shared in different ways; for instance, a VGA adapter enable you to connect the iPad to a projector to allow larger displays to get a roomful of audience. Microsoft documents may also be imported into the iPad. Presentations, spreadsheets and text documents can be shared on a wider scale by uploading to iWork.com in which the public can view these files.
